Was your software up to date? I guess the recent patch was released in may or june which included a Bluetooth version update. Please update it if not done already.

Thanks, I have actually never updated the software since i purchased it (Nov 2013). Couple of updates post purchase did not seem to have annything major. So did not bother much. Then lost track of the updates.

You can also try requesting for help via blaupunkt India Facebook page. I had purchased mine via the contact they had provided and they were pretty responsive.

Thanks a lot for your response. Today, I got a call from the corporate office of BP at Mumbai. They have suggested me to send the unit to their office at Mumbai for repairs. They said that the entire process will take about 10 days. I have decided to accept their suggestion and send the unit through a reliable courier. I will update the group as soon as I receive the unit. Regards.

Anyone using this headunit on the jetta highline? I am considering the BP835 for my jetta highline and just want to make sure everything including the OPS would work properly. Also can anyone who has bought the headunit recently can please share the cost? Would be helpful.

Yeah i saw, Considering the gap between BP 835 and dynavin is hardly 10-11k, Dynavin seems to be a better choice, But i am still keeping a check on snapdeal if they are offering it at a lower price at any point of time, I think anywhere between 30k Would be a really tempting price.

Dynavin N6 from the VW series will work with all the VW models, Polo, Vento, Jetta, Passat etc.

Later I searched for the same and got that info , Only problem with new generation Vento's is that they have disabled the OPS module and you would have to install a reverse camera along with wiring. With Jetta i don't think you would have any problem , i would suggest you go for Dynavin. The software used in P835 seems a legacy one

Yes, Jetta and passat would not have any issues and everything would work like a charm, I am too keen on getting a dynavin, But nearly 50k makes me think is it worth it? New shoes and a remap is possible by just adding a little more to the 50k and it would enhance the driving pleasure by a lot.

I've bought the new Facelift Vento Comfortline recently.
I want to upgrade to the BP 835 but have some queries :

Is it a simple swap job with the RCD 220 ?
Does the comfortline have OPS and canbus ?
And does the BP 835 support OPS and Canbus or do I need to get a separate module for the same ?

Thanking you
Regards

The BP835 comes with multiple connectors to fit various VW cars and variants, so it should be a fairly straight forward job (I don't know for sure because mine is a Highline).
The highline no longer comes with an OPS module, so I seriously doubt the comfortline will have it. I'd think all VW cars will have canbus to varying degrees of complexity -- if your car has steering controls, for example, then the BP835 will be able to interface directly with the car controls.
Yes the BP835 supports OPS but the car no longer has it. A reversing camera works as well, if not better. The OPS module can't be installed from outside easily. Canbus is a car-wide network which controls various functions and sensors, it's not one module and there is no way to get it installed.

Now I want to upgrade the stock system of Jetta HL 2012 model. What possible combinations can I make ?

1. Buying a 1-2k rs. Bluetooth device and using it through the ipod connector and adding a sub and an amp. Can I expect any sound improvement with this ? Also the steering controls will work with these kind of devices ?

2. Buying Blaupunkt 835 and adding one sub and one amp with the stock speakers. Maybe I can use my existing amp in this and just buy a new sub.

3. Blaupunkt 835 + Rainbow comps and beat 4 amp from Brio and a new sub woofer. Disconnecting all the stock speakers.

4. Blaupunkt 835 + Rainbow comps and beat 4 amp from Brio and a new sub woofer combined with the remaining stock speakers.

Can you guys please suggest me some options ? Brio is going to be up for sale soon and taking out the Rainbows will be a good deal in my opinion. But if good quality can be had with the stock speakers then that is my preferred choice here.
